Unable to compile a plugin

Hi,

I have been trying to compile a small plugin in wireshark (1.5.0) on Fedora
14. There is a single C file call pv.c

I created a directory under plugins and copied my C file. Then I took the
Makefile.am and Makefile.common from plugins/interlink directory and
modified to change plugin name, version and SRC directories. I also copied
moduleinfo.h into my plugin directory.

Here are changes I made to Makefile.common:
*PLUGIN_NAME = pv*
*DISSECTOR_SRC = \*
* pv.c*

Here are changes I made to Makefile.am:
*plugin_LTLIBRARIES = pv.la*

I also adapted $(wireshark)/plugins/Makefile.am/common to include my pv
directory under plugins to be compiled. I did the same for root Makefile.am
and Makefile.common

But after doing all of this, after ./configure when I make the build; I keep
on getting this error "No rule to make target 'all'. Stop". I assumed that
make process will automatically generate the plugin.c, makefile.in and
makefile in my plugin directory and then the process will continue.

Could any one point out that where I am missing the link here?

Best Regards
Omer
